Eeeeeh i largely disagree. We can objectively measure the world, and 99% of the time what we see is close enough to what we can measure with stuff like spectrometers.

There's a reason we consider optical illusions noteworthy: They're edge cases, different from our usual experience of largely accurately perceiving the world. And the vast majority of the time these optical illusions have to be specifically created, they don't tend to just appear in nature.

This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it's too interesting, it doesn't belong. If it's not interesting, it doesn't belong.

This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh.. what do we know?

Just post some stuff and don't spam.
